Hermès

The Hermès watchmaking tradition dates back to the 1920s, when its saddle-making talent was first exercised on watch straps. At the time, Hermès placed its signature on “timepieces” created in cooperation with the greatest names in the Swiss watch industry – such as Jaeger-LeCoultre, Universal, Vacheron Constantin and Audemars Piguet – before founding in 1978 the Ateliers de La Montre Hermès in Biel, Switzerland. La Montre Hermès was proclaiming its taste for high standards and its passion for precision. It has thus been combining inventiveness and know-how for over 80 years through an approach firmly grounded on creative craftsmanship.
